Nairobi, Kenya – Field Marshall Muthoni Kirima, a prominent figure in the fight for Kenyan independence and a revered Mau Mau fighter, has died at the age of 92. Her passing marks the end of an era for Kenya and the loss of an extraordinary individual who dedicated her life to the liberation of her country.

Born in Nyeri, Kenya in 1931, Kirima was deeply influenced by the injustices of British colonial rule.

Following Kenya’s independence in 1963, Kirima continued to be an advocate for social justice and equality. She dedicated her post-independence years to championing the rights of women, children, and marginalized communities. Her legacy as a trailblazer and advocate for change will forever be remembered.

President Uhuru Kenyatta expressed his condolences, stating, “Field Marshall Muthoni Kirima was a true hero and an inspiration to us all. Her bravery and sacrifice will never be forgotten. We owe her a debt of gratitude for her invaluable contribution to the struggle for our independence.”
